IndexedDB Object Stores: Your Browser's NoSQL Table
An IndexedDB Object Store is like a NoSQL table in your browser, holding JavaScript objects by key. Use it for offline data like to-do lists or cached API responses. The main footgun: you can only create stores during a database version upgrade.
Think of an IndexedDB Object Store as a NoSQL table inside your browser. It's a key-value store for structured data like JavaScript objects, ideal for offline-first apps, caching server responses, or saving user content locally. The biggest footgun is trying to create a store outside a `versionchange` transaction; schema changes can only happen when you open the database with a new version number.
